I sometimes find it difficult when a male debater has a profile picture with a female in it. I could look up their profile but usually do't put in that effort and so I can mistakenly call a male, a female based on their picture.

Because they have the right to do so. Does it bother you? Maybe it does. Unless, you're gay and are scoping out guys and you're mad because their default picture is of a girl..?

I don't think he's mad, I think he is just confused. Don't take offense, Hannah.

I wasn't taking offense? I think its funny.

It doesn't particularly upset me and they have have their picture be anything they like, I am just saying it can get confusing.

I understand where OP is coming from. Of course they can have a profile pic of a girl if they want, but it just seems pointlessly confusing. It's as if they're *trying* to confuse people.

Also, it can cause people to use the wrong pronouns. For example, the other day I voted on one of Zaradi's debates and I referred to her as a she because I saw she had a female picture so it is a valid inference to conclude that this picture is of herself. It was only later that I realised he is male.
